991 Owners Cars

I'm aware that the engineering aspect has no relationship to earlier models which were not always great!
Also is anyone thinking of selling one?

I just signed up to the club so here's my muse by way of an intro...
My first Porsche.
She's a 991.1 Turbo S with pretty much every extra there was going at the time, inc. Aero.
I've had Eibach adjustable length lower arms fitted to the front to push out the camber & caster. Chris @ Center Gravity then gave it his favourite Nordschleife setup. The handling is epic and the steering feel is delicious. That guy is a magician!
I've also had braided lines, Endless fluid, Manthey Green pads and in a couple of weeks, Surface Transform discs added to ease the strain on the car on track.
It's quite fast.

i was going to pm you.I’ve booked in with litchfield to do the 460 bhp upgrade.
how have you found it .any concerns ?
i plan to keep this for a while( as I always say!),and don’t want to **** the engine up long term.
grateful for any thoughts
Hi Dylan,
I have always found Litchfield Motors great to deal with. In fact, I’m back there next month for them to fit some extended wheel bolts (as I had 7mm spacers fitted all round by them previously).
I did have a turbo wastegate seizure on my car this year, but no evidence to say that was in any way connected with the Litchfield upgrades.
Very happy with my car and I too am planning on keeping mine long term. []
Cheers,
Simon
Dylan1 said:Thanks Simon
did your insurance company hit you for a big hike out of interest?
best wishes
Hi Dylan. Sorry for delay. From memory, the insurance premium increase wasn’t too bad. Cheers, Simon

How was you Porsche warranty affected by the Lichfield upgrade? John
Hi John,
There was no need to claim, so I never found out. It ran out in April this year, and I didn’t extend it, due to fearing that the Litchfield upgrades would invalidate various elements.
Cheers,
Simon
My Porsche is as per it`s delivery specification or has only been modified in line with the manufacturers recommendations. YES/NO I understand that I am committing to having my Porsche maintained and repaired at a Porsche Centre or Authorised Service/Repair centre for the duration of the Warranty Policy. YES/NO
Hope this assists understanding..?
That looks a fine, stealthy motor Dylan. Might see it at Milbrook next year?Dylan1 said:[attachImg]https://www.porscheclubgb.com/forum/download.axd?file=0;1107650&where=message&f=6DCD26B0-9B19-4877.444-4D12D710F805.jpeg[/attachImg]
